Under normal circumstances, Kampl would drive into the box playing in either striker or taking a shot closer to goal. However, he is now forced to take an attempt from distance with two Dortmund defenders blocking his path.

Wyscout] Leipzig have consistently tormented opponents this season with deep-lying runs from the likes of Kevin Kampl and Marcel Sabitzer.

The experienced Favre looked to negate their threat though by playing two athletic midfield destroyers that gave his side a bit of vigour and steel in the middle.

Delaney and Witsel sticking together throughout the game. Wyscout] On multiple occasions, we saw the pair working in tandem looking to disrupt the momentum Leipzig were trying to build.

The two central midfielders are chasing Marcel Sabitzer. Wyscout] They turn their attention to Timo Werner.

The second half saw RB Leipzig make a resurgent come back but Witsel and Delaney stuck to their task and tracked every run.

As Marcel Sabitzer searches for options in the images above, he pauses and waits for the incoming Timo Werner. At this point, Witsel and Delaney have both surrounded Werner.

Whilst the German escapes the initial challenge he is immediately dispossessed by Thomas Delaney. Once again, notice the positioning between the two Dortmund midfielders.

Dortmund managed to win four corners in the first half and each time they inched closer and closer towards scoring. The Leipzig players were clearly finding it tough to deal with the size and strength of the Dortmund players in and around the box.

Wyscout] Delaney narrowly misses the target. Wyscout] This was from an early corner delivered by Jadon Sancho. Thomas Delaney can be seen running in unmarked and manages to get his head on the ball as it fizzles past the post.

The warning signs were there for Leipzig and they eventually paid for their poor marking. No one marking the runner. Wyscout] Witsel unmarked and scores.

The Belgian manages to score his second goal of the season. The second half saw RB Leipzig stage a worthy comeback with a late resurgence.

After conceding the first goal, Rangnick made a slight tactical tweak with Werner pushed up alongside Poulsen rather than on the wing.

The changes in player positions by Leipzig throughout the match. Wyscout] Rangnick instructed his players to increase the tempo of the game by asking his full-backs to push up higher and get more involved.

This looked to have worked as the number of shots increased dramatically. A total of eight shots , four on target , and three off target with one blocked attempt, compared far more favourably to the first half where they only managed one shot on target.

Kevin Kampl and Sabitzer had switched roles. The diminutive Austrian midfielder was now asked to play a more expansive role going forward to probe the fatigued Dortmund team.

His silky play meant he could slip in and out of the small gaps almost unnoticed. Space behind the Dortmund backline. Wyscout] Werner attempting a cross towards Poulsen.

Wyscout] Big save by the Swiss goalkeeper. The Leipzig man wins the initial aerial duel and passes towards Poulsen. The Dane plays a neat through-ball into the path of Werner, who in turn uses his blistering pace to play in Sabitzer.

Once again Werner utilises his pace to get beyond the opposition defenders, but is denied by the Swiss goalkeeper. Throughout the first half both Poulsen and Werner were kept at bay by the centre-backs, with Weigl particularly excelling in keeping Timo Werner from scoring by contributing in nine interceptions.

Weigl stepped in to play as an emergency centre-back with a scarcity of fit defenders and impressed everyone. He was destined to move on to the French capital, but has now impressed in his new-found position and has created a conundrum for Lucien Favre.

Weigl only focusing on Werner. Wyscout] As the throw-in is played towards Poulsen, he looks to play in Werner and exploit the space in behind the two centre-backs.
